When I am watching movies on my HD useing Core Player. The program boots me to the touch flow screen. Core Player does not shut down, it just sends me to the last used tab on the Flow screen. Any suggestions to avoid that? I just can't figure it out
No one got any suggestions? I have the newest version of coreplayer. Could it be somekind of energy setting?

i use it as well and it doesnt happen here. can only suggest the classic: do a hard-reset, install just the core player and see if problem is still there...

Windows media plays very slow and choppy for me- is there anyway to fix the speed. I've overclocked the wing but haven't had the chance to increase the page file- as I travel and am not home to active sync. anything else I can do?

Use TCPMP. It plays all videos, and I never have choppy or laggy videos. You may also want to change ROMS. I dont know if they will help with the video problem, but there are other things to be gained. itje's Touch 4.4 is great. And I think Ivans CleanRom would be a good bet also. I think both already for the pagepool set.
Good Luck

gimpy, I downloaded tcpmp however, I cannot get it to play .wmv files. seems I am missing a codec. do I need to install a plug-in?
I am looking into a new rom- but will wait until I am back home (wed).

There is another cab. Im not sure if it helps with .wmv files, but it couldnt hurt. Are you soft reseting after installing the .cabs?
Hello,
Orb was working great with my Blackjack running WM5 and the subsequent upgrade to WM6 on Windows Media Player (WMP). However, after I changed my phone to a Touch Dual running WM6.1 (out of the box ROM), I have been unable to stream live TV/webcam to the phone. WMP will connect and then get stuck in the buffering state at 0%, then eventually receiving a "server busy or cannot be found" error.
If I switch over to CorePlayer I was able to stream, albeit with a very long buffer load time. I'd rather stick with WMP and seems like there might be a codec missing?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Forget CorePlayer--try TCPMP. It's free and works great with my ORB running on WM6.1 Buffer set to 25% streaming through BT DUN Verizon EVDO. Make sure to change the file association to WMV. WMP is good but TCPMP is better.

TCPMP doesn't want to work on the Dual. Is there another version out there that works with Touch Dual WM6.1? Would the recompiled version work?

Let me rephrase my question as to indicate that this isn't a repost of questions asked already on the forum:
1) Touch Dual US edition just came out. Out of the box it runs WM 6.1 straight from the manufacturer.
2) As I mentioned before, Orb does not want to play nicely with WMP within WM 6.1, even though it worked perfectly with WMP within WM6 smartphone edition (Blackjack).
3) A *search* does not result in people having problems running Orb with WMP in the WM 6.1 environment. It seems like most people use TCPMP to stream for Orb. A suggestion was made to use TCPMP instead.
4) Search for "TCPMP Touch Dual" resulted in this relevant thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2269633 - that had one person running the Mary ROM with TCPMP 0.72RC1. The originator of the post is in the same predicament as I am and doesn't seem like he got TCPMP to work either.
5) There is an Orb WMP fix link - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298126 - but it addresses TCPMP issues with WM6 in conjunction with Orb, not WMP. Since I can't even start TCPMP on my Touch Dual, it is sort of mute.
Is there anybody that can shed light in this particular subject? Thanks in advance.
Hi, I just tried to use orb on my HTC touch pro running wm6.1, opera 9.5 w/ flash lite 3.1. When I surfed to mycast.orb.com, all I can see is the top bar and the bottom speed indicators. Nothing inbetween, and the 'open application' drop-down doesn't drop down either. Something I'm doing wrong, or missed?

CAN ANYONE OUT THERE HELP ME, i've been trying to play any sort of video on my hd but the only thing i managed was a half screen with the divx player what about the coreplayer is iut working with you because i can only hear the sound i can't see a thing.
I have installed Core Player but not tested yet, think if you look at other threads that many people have it working just fine on the HD.
I have Core Player install on my HD and I can play any video without any problem.
thanks for all the help so far
Just copied a short divx, works really well
coreplayer went a bit funny with me too earlier today and I got nothing onscreen. The screen resolution was set correctly and it started to count as if it was playing...but nothing but a black screen
A soft reset sorted it

didn't for me, what version you got there?
Coreplayer v1.2.5 build 4506 will sometimes give me a black screen (I think after a call or sometimes after minimising the program). Closing Coreplayer and then reopening it fixes it every time for me.

do i have to buy this one? because i got the 1.2.2 ver.
What are the player to play my AVI as i notice that it cant play my avi on wmp.
i use this - http://www.coreplayer.com/
however its commercial software.
im sure someone else would be able to recommend an alternative that is free.
Personally tried core player,it dropped frames. Played a Music video of 640*352 rsolution,24fps,.xvid encoded avi file,the result of first 45 seconds are like this-Played frame-25,Dropped frame-999. So how is that? I used the 1.30 version though,no idea about the latest version. I am selling it as soon as the Omnia Hd or Omnia 2 releases. I can't live without watching movies/videos on the go,so I need something where I will get the .divx and .xvid support out of the box.
Thanks.
I think it's a shame that CorePlayer don't do a demo since more than most software, you need to trial it before you know whether it will play your videos on your device, and no reviews or screenshots will ever tell you that.
Core media player (1.25) played a 23 fps 640*352 xvid (.avi) video file encoded at 133Kbps (about 90 minutes fo video in 700MB). This was downloaded as a "for PC" file and played like a dream.

I found that divx has a mobile player and it seems to work great for avi and divx files. I tried installing both coreplayer and the freeware version TCPMP player and both crashed when I tried to run. If anyone knows of a fix to either of them crashing please inform.
Heres the link to Divx mobile. http://www.divx.com/mobile/
Hi all. I'm using core player and haven't had any problems - vid playback is good. I did use the divx player for a while but somehow preferred core player. One thing I dislike about them both is the lack of finger friendly controls - always need the stylus sooner or later.
I'm also using Core player and it works absolutely fine for me...But I found that there are no controls and seek bar when in full screen landscape mode. As soon as I touch the screen, it goes to portrait mode. So to move the movie forward or backward, it has always to be done only in portrait mode.
Is this a normal behavior, or there is some bug in mine?
Core player alternative needed
Core player plays everything fine for me, but it is very non-intuitive. Making playlists in the old version, TCPMP, was as simple as selecting, etc. I have not seen this ease of use in the new version. The lack of any good documentation does not help either.
It may be that I just have not figured this piece of software out, but the new version takes the ipod and Windows media player approach. This approach requires that it must know where all your files are all the time and be updated each time you add new media, then you are willing to spend a lot of time setting up playlists. I wife bought it and never uses it because it is a pain in the a$$. It seems to have a learning mode, but this is really annoyong when you know what you want. I am not willing to spend the time required for setting up playlists in the required manner before getting in the car or going for a run.
A simple program like the old TCPMP would be greatly appreciated. They had a winner before.
MPlayer is not yet ready for prime time, but shows promise.
Any Player that supports subtitles?

Well, I have the same issue. Whether we're calling this a bug , or normal behaviour is maybe up for debate, but in the real world its pretty annoying.
What I really want is a media player that intuitively knows when to play in landscape mode, can browse files easily and has finger friendly controls ... and if it's free, that's fine too

CorePlayer works in landscape for me. When I rotate the phone, it updates to match portrait or landscape.
I think I had to force it to do this with G-Config.

TCMP

Hi
There is a version of TCMP (search this forum) wich support srt subtitles.
I also use Coreplayer but I must say that if the user interface is better with Coreplayer, TCMP play the same avi files (standard 700 mb divx) much better than Coreplayer.
I think Coreplayer need more fine tuning to work right.
After trying and failing to get xvid and divx codec movies to reliably play on Coreplayer or TCPMP, I decided to find a good converter, and used WinMenc to convert the files to .mp4 x264 format so I can play it natively on the device using the Windows Media Player built in, HOWEVER the Media Player looks like it;s going to load the videos, i.e. showed 'Loading...' with the white circle, but then it never moves on. The device is not crashed, as I can just exit out, but the movies will not play even in a format that the HD2 recognises. This is really annoying the hell out of me now, as all I want to do is play video on my phone, not really asking a great deal.
Has anyone got any advice for fixing this problem with Media Player 'getting stuck'? Cheers
Any ideas? Can WMP even be reinstalled or repaired? Seems a bit strange for an app native to the device to just not work.
what settings did you use for the encoding?
also, see kr00t0n's profile for winMenc, its the best soloution ive found IMHO
did u try this?

Yeah I'm using his HD2 profile buddy, saved as an .ini.
I think it's WMP to be honest, as it does the same on any .mp4. Currently, I can only get a very small number of films to run through TCPMP, but I can't identify what's causing them to work/not work. But WMP does not work at all!
I'm wondering if a hard reset might work on it. I'm getting seriously fed up with my HD2 though, far too many things wrong with it. I'm starting to think about flogging it now.

I converted a few films with a crappy free verison of some software can't remember the name tho. So far all have worked on all the media players I have used WMP, TCPMP and Core player. Are you on a custom ROM? Not sure if certain ROMS may have bugs in causing this.

I've used the normal HTC ROM and Artemis ROM, happens on both. I've tried all sorts of conversion software. Nothing ever seems to reliably play.
